Bookmarks in toolbar keep disappearing
Here's the deal. I wanted to get back my 'Most Visited' bookmark, so I followed this page's instructions:
After that I successfully got my bookmark back, but after every time I would quit out of Firefox all my bookmarks in my toolbar would disappear. Even after I put back my bookmarks on the toolbar they would keep disappearing. I'm starting to wonder if setting "browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion" to 0 will always reset the toolbar. Anyone know why this keeps happening? Thanks.
